It's good to be king, if just for a while

A D G
Yeah the world would swing oh if I were king
C G D C G Em A Asus A
Can I help it if I still dream time to time

[Verse 2]

It's good to be king and have your own way
Get a feeling of peace at the end of the day
And when your bulldog barks and your canary sings
You're out there with winners, it's good to be king

[Chorus 2]

Yeah, I'll be king when dogs get wings
Can I help it if I still dream time to time

(guitar solo over verse chords)

[Verse 3]

It's good to be king and have your own world
It helps to make friends, it's good to meet girls
A sweet little queen, who can't run away
It's good to be king, whatever it pays (no riff)

[Chorus 3]

C G D C G D
Excuse me if I have some place in my mind
C G Em A Asus A Asus A Asus A
Where I go time to time
